The Day Traders: The Untold Story of the Extreme Investors and How They Changed Wall Street Forever Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is a great book, it does not tell you how to get rich, and it does not tell you that Day Trading is the work of Satan.

Short-Term Futures Trading: Systems, Strategies and Techniques for the Day-Trader Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Even though the title of the book implies its short term trading purpose in futures markets, I think this book is really a collection of technical ideas for entry and exit for your trading positions in other markers as well. The good thing about the ideas contained in this book is that a trader can customize...

The Jumanos: Hunters and Traders of the South Plains Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I doubt that even the doting author thought this book would make the best seller lists. The Jumanos, for the 99.9 percent of readers who have never heard of them, were a tribe of Texas Indians who lived on the Rio Grande and Pecos Rivers. By 1700 they had pretty much disappeared. So shadowy are they...

Mule Trader: Ray Lum's Tales of Horses, Mules, and Men (Banner Book Series) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Ray Lum's tells a pretty good set of stories in this book. The books format was concise and easy to follow and Lum's stories relate well with the comings and goings of the horse and mule market of the 30's, 40's and 50's. This is a very entertaining read, especially for those Ben Green fans who need...

Technical Analysis of the Currency Market: Classic Techniques for Profiting from Market Swings and Trader Sentiment (Wiley Trading) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Many of the recent books on FX have been of such poor quality that I wonder where our priorities are. Publishers, authors and readers seem to have lowered the bar both in terms of the quality of the presentation and in terms of rigor. Are we so impatient that we cannot wait until the text is proofed...

Hanging Captain Gordon: The Life and Trial of an American Slave Trader Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The law on the books was quite clear in 1860. Any American convicted of engaging in the slave trade was subject to the death penalty. Surely Captain Nathanial Gordon from Portland, Maine had no reason to believe that this could ever happen to him as he sailed toward Africa on just such a mission in the...

Their task was to seek out those ships suspected of carrying slaves from Africa to the Americas and elsewhere. In true Nelsonian style, the Royal Navy took the fight to the enemy and sailed their ships...

Fibonacci for the Active Trader Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Blends heavy influence of Dinapoli with some Pesavento and Robert Miner. I did notice he used Dynamic Trader for his charting examples, yet failed to mention a thing about Elliott Wave in his methods. The book is simple to read, very much like a Larry Connors style of book. Presents 8 methods, many of...

Technical Analysis and Stock Market Profits Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The ironic thing is, you couldn't tell it was written in 1932 or 2002 .. the techniques are identical to basic TA today , even the psychology section about cutting losses and trading with the trend sound familiar. Certainly revolutionary when it came out, it's somewhat dated now and a bit wordy. Anyone...
